[PATCH] add numa node information to struct device
For node-aware skb allocations we need information about the node in struct
net_device or struct device. Davem suggested to put it into struct device
which this patch does.
In particular:
- struct device gets a new int numa_node member if CONFIG_NUMA is set
- there are two new helpers, dev_to_node and set_dev_node to
transparently deal with the non-numa case
- for pci devices the node-info is set to the value we get from
pcibus_to_node.
Note that for some architectures pcibus_to_node doesn't work yet at the time
we call it currently. This is harmless and will just mean skb allocations
aren't node-local on this architectures until the implementation of
pcibus_to_node on these architectures have been updated (There are patches for
x86 and x86_64 floating around)
